This Week… Debt Special.

I’ll be taking a whole audience who are in debt through how to fight back. Plus make money from doing surveys and Jennie Bond takes the wallet challenge.

British Gas 15% price hike. Don’t switch yet! Unless you want to cap charges.
British Gas has put gas & elec prices up an average 15%; this follows npower and EDFs' recent hikes. It's likely the rest of the
big six will follow soon, so comparing tariffs just now is pointless, as today's cheapest will almost certainly be about to raise prices;
so don't switch just yet. Do you want to cap? Yet, if price surety is important to you, then a ‘capped tariff’
will prevent any future rises, though you may pay a slight premium for it. If this is the case, then do a comparison now, to find the
cheapest cap. Top Pick Comparison Service:Energyhelpline* (though like all comparison services it doesn’t list Scottish
Power's competitive Online Energy Pricefall capped tariff, which is due to end soon). Full Info: Read the

High street lender fined £1 million for PPI malpractice. Can you reclaim £1,000s?
The misselling of loan and credit card insurance has been rife, and I believe there are millions who can claim back £1,000s.
If you’ve taken a loan or credit card out in the last six years, do check whether you’ve got the insurance and read my guide to
see if you can reclaim. To illustrate this, last week HFC Bank, a high street lender and part of the HSBC group, was fined £1m
by the regulator, the FSA, for Payment Protection Insurance problems, the biggest fine so far. Full details on how to reclaim in the
updated Guide & Free Template letter: PPI ReclaimingRelated Articles:Bank Charges,

Are cheap chicks chic? No! Last Week’s Vote.
Almost half of you (48%) put chicken welfare first, regardless of its impact on cost, and 38% said they'd pay up to £1 more per bird for better
conditions. Just 9% were more concerned with keeping costs down than welfare, whilst 5% mitigated themselves from the whole debate by just not
eating chicken in the first place. See Poll Results

How this site works

We think it's important you understand the strengths and limitations of the site. We're a journalistic website and aim to provide the best MoneySaving guides, tips, tools and techniques, but can't guarantee to be perfect, so do note you use the information at your own risk and we can't accept liability if things go wrong.

This info does not constitute financial advice, always do your own research on top to ensure it's right for your specific circumstances and remember we focus on rates not service.

Do note, while we always aim to give you accurate product info at the point of publication, unfortunately price and terms of products and deals can always be changed by the provider afterwards, so double check first.

We don't as a general policy investigate the solvency of companies mentioned (how likely they are to go bust), but there is a risk any company can struggle and it's rarely made public until it's too late (see the Section 75 guide for protection tips).

We often link to other websites, but we can't be responsible for their content.

Always remember anyone can post on the MSE forums, so it can be very different from our opinion.

MoneySavingExpert.com is part of the MoneySupermarket Group, but is entirely editorially independent. Its stance of putting consumers first is protected and enshrined in the legally-binding MSE Editorial Code.
